recorded a one-minute version of Lerner and Loewe's "Thank Heaven for Little Girls" for a Samuel Bayer-directed Mountain Dew commercial in which she also appeared. Rankine then moved to New Orleans, Louisiana, but only stayed only six months due to events including a rash of car-jackings and hold-ups in the surrounding areas, and the murder of a woman in the garden across from her home. When Rankine learned that the killer had deposited the victim's clothing in her garbage as they left the scene, she left New Orleans within five days for Seattle to start recording Ruby's second album. Most of Short-Staffed at the Gene Pool was finished by August 1998 and nearly completed by Rankine in her native Scotland throughout 1999. The album was released in 2001; a supporting tour was hampered when effects equipment was lost. For a short time Ruby collaborated with former Creation label members Mark Bowen and Dick Green, but by March 2008 no further recordings had been released. Rankine took a break from recording, returning to her home country. By this time Walk had become a member of Skinny Puppy. In December 2012, Rankine announced on her Facebook page that she was working on new music and videos under the Ruby name. In 2013, she released the EP Revert to Type, followed by the album Waiting for Light in 2014. Another EP, Type-Cast, was released in 2016.
